Outstanding! Great report and some beautiful animals. I'm not sure if it's the lighting, exceptional photography, or early season health, but the coats on all your animals are stunning.

Congratulations!

Great coloration on that wildebeest, the stripes are nice and dark. Congrats on the successful trip.

Congratulations!

I think it was a combination of all three to be honest. All animals were in top condition.

Unsure to be honest.

I had such a good experience this time that it would be a tough call for me to take the gamble on another outfitter/PH. Would certainly consider another country depending on what I think I'd like to target. At this stage, after seeing a very fine specimen last week, Eland is at the top of that list!

Congrats on an awesome hunt! Thanks very much for sharing. No doubt you will be going back once your son is old enough to hunt with you. Enjoy your new hunting partner. Every day is precious.

@stoxicity, thanks for sharing your experience & congratulations on some awesome animals. I must say you have one of the most wonderful trophies I'd have ever seen ... the picture of your little boy having the time of his life on Safari ! Priceless.

I would take the last picture of your son and put it on the wall and surround it with pictures of the hunt and your wife a true trophy for life
